Guys, correct me if I am wrong but Albert clears up $9.8 right? Smith is due $7.5 this season but if they can work out a long term deal and make his first year heavy on the side of signing bonus that could clear some up.

But I feel all 4 guys due to earn over $10 mil this year (Bowe, Berry, Flowers, and Hali) are going to be under the microscope this offseason.

Based on what we are expecting the salary cap to be next year, we only have a few million in cap space WITHOUT Albert's contract.

They will be able to cut other guys to free up Cap room so they are going to have some cap room. The question will be if they use that to bring in free agents or lock some guys up and focus on the draft or in between. IMO the draft is going to be far more important then the free agent market for this team.

I can't totally agree with that. To me astute FA signings are just as important as drafting well. Horseface in Denver has done that. Getting Welker, for example took their offense over the hump and very hard to stop.
